All people employing illegal aliens will also be arrested and fined. All people giving aid or care to illegal aliens will also be arrested and fined. The hiring of non citizens that have entered the US legally with the assistance of Immigration and Naturalization Services will of course be encouraged. Only the hiring of illegal aliens will be reason for arrest.
This will result in no or very few illegal aliens going to the local hospitals for medical attention. This will bring welfare for illegal aliens to a screeching halt.
Imagine what that would do to surrounding Counties with a similar budget deficit. Do you think it might prompt them to do a similar actions? Do you think it might convince the State officials when enough Counties have adopted these measures that we citizens are serious in our desire to protect our communities from being over run by illegal aliens?

The federal Gov't may neither issue directives requiring the States to address particular problems, nor command State' officers, or those of their political subdivisions, to administer or enforce a federal regulatory program. It matters not whether policy making is involved, and no case by case weighing of the burdens or benefits is necessary; such commands are fundamentally incompatible with our constitutional system of dual sovereignty.

That is a key, for sure. I'd even go for heavy fines without the arrest. Make them pay for deficits to schools, hospitals, and prisons. Let the business survive, but force them to hire citizens or legal guest workers. If that's not "compassionate" enough for our guv, or Prez Fox, let them eat cake. Asking for Fed $$$ to cover the cost of illegals, as Kyl is doing, is a band-aid, as you know. AZ is going bankrupt, and the illegals problem isn't helping. It's nuts.
